General Safety Information: Do not take any oils internally
and do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated essences onto the skin without advanced essential oil knowledge or consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have
liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils
only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use
extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only
the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified
aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. For in-depth information on oil safety
